Pan Fried Fish with Apple Maple Compote

Use any mild flavoured fish for this recipe.

Compote:

4 cups chopped Apples - I used MacIntosh (from our tree - they are the best!)
1/2 cup water
1/3 cup Maple Syrup
1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
2 tbsp minced fresh parsley

Fish
4 fillets approx 175 g each
3 tbsp all purpose flour
1 tbsp minced fresh parsley
1 tsp paprika
1/4 tsp each salt and pepper
1 tbsp vegetable oil
2 tbsp maple syrup

1.  Compote:  in medium saucepan, combine apples, water, maple syrup and nutmeg.  Bring mixture to boil; reduce heat and simmer until apples are tender and sauce is thickened, about 15 minutes.  Stir in parsley and set aside.
2.  Fish:  In shallow dish, whisk flour, parsley, paprika, salt and pepper.  Press fish fillets into flour mixture, turning to coat both sides, shake off excess.
3.  In large nonstick skillet (or cast iron) heat oil over medium high heat, cook fish, turning once, until flesh flakes easy with fork, about 8 minutes.  In last 2 minutes of cooking brush maple syrup over top of each fillet.  Remove fish to plate; serve with compote.
